The Ramones,Are you sure?They were just a good-time college rock band,The
only people who liked them were geeky kids at high-school.What did they
stand for? Gabba-Gabba -Hey.
    They are one of the few bands who have sold more T-Shirts then albums.
    They were just a parody of themselves,I ve seen more caricature drawings
of them than I ve seen actual photos.
   They were a cartoon band ,belonging in the same group as The
Simpsons,Beavis &Bergkamp and The Monkeys.
  And the way he used to sing,(Well, wine actually)through his nose is
sooooo annoying.
